At this time, night fell, and the sky to the east was speckled with black, but the sky to the west was still gray.
The manic snow wind blew down, and white snow spots began to mix in again. The experienced Huns looked back on their way and saw that among the white dots, only the solitary peak of the sky in the north was still faintly visible. They said: It was snowing heavily in the north again, and the wind picked up and blew it here again.
Da Qie Qu Ju Qu Wuji was the commander-in-chief of this ten thousand cavalry army. At this time, he was wearing a black bear fur coat and a gray wolf fur felt hat. He held the brim of the hat with one hand to prevent it from being blown away by the strong wind, and held the long bow on his back with the other hand. The Huns wearing white sheep fur are quite conspicuous.
Since the return of Qiequ Zhiyasi, Qiequ's tribe was highly valued by the Jinyang Bafu because the tribe was quite literate and well versed in the actual situation of the Xiongnu tribes.
Qiequbu also reciprocated the favor and officially changed his surname to Juqu, which contains
The meaning of "drink water and think of its source". After that, Qu Zhiyasi died in the battle at Longshouyuan. Liu Bei was grateful for his merits, so after his nephew Juqu Wuji inherited the position of leader, he kept him responsible for promoting Hanization among the Xiongnu, and Juqu Wuji also became the leader. He was appointed as the Secretary of the Xiongnu Codex in Bafu and became the most powerful person in the Xiongnu after Liu Xuan, Liu Bao and his uncle and nephew.
Previously, Chen Qun was ordered by Chen Chong to go to Jinyang Meiji to ask for help. At this time, both Liu Xuan and Liu Bao were resisting Cao's army in Luoyang, and no one in the royal court made the decision.
Therefore, under Liu Jia's decision, he finally ordered all the tribes to gather more than 10,000 troops, and Juqu Wuji led the troops south to rush to the aid of Guanzhong.
But the situation changed again and again along the way. When Juqu Wuji left Meiji, he was waiting for orders in Xijing.
But when they rushed to Jinyang, they learned that Chang'an had already fallen. Chen Qun discussed with them to go to Jiangyi first to observe the situation.
When they arrived at Jiangyi again, they received an order from Puban Chen Chong, hoping that they would lead an army to assist Meiji.
The orders changed every few days, which made it difficult for the Huns to adapt. But now is the biggest test. Juqu Wuji originally thought that he could wait until the Liang army fought hard at the foot of Puban, and then lead his troops to contain them outside. The matter would not be difficult to handle.
Unexpectedly, he met Liang Jun unexpectedly in Yanchi. At this time, the distance between the two armies was only two miles, which was enough for a battle. He had to decide whether to fight in the field without preparation.
The accompanying Empress Helianchi heard that there was Lu Bu's flag ahead, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He said to Juqu Wuji: "Before and after the battle at Longshouyuan, I heard that Lu Bu had a reputation as an iron beast, and he was as powerful as Guan Jun. Liang Liang. I've seen how difficult people can be, even more so in Xianbei. Now that we meet on a narrow road, why don't we step back and talk about it later?" Juqu Wuji didn't answer immediately. His eyes were staring at the commotion beside the pool through the darkness and mist. Liangqi.
After waiting for a while, he slowly shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's too late to retreat. There's a north wind blowing behind us. We're retreating against the wind. I'm afraid we won't be able to retreat quickly. If they take advantage of the situation and come up, a big battle will inevitably happen." After hearing this, Huyan Hongda of the Huyan tribe greatly agreed with this, and then said: "If we were to fight at this time, and we shot arrows with the wind, the range of the arrows would be much farther. With God's help, no matter how hard they fight, they will not be able to fight with us. "Juqu Wuji nodded in agreement, so he fired a buzzer into the sky to silence the surroundings, and then ordered his soldiers to blow the attack horn.
However, at the same moment when the Huns blew their trumpets, the Liang army by the salt pond also launched a counterattack. There were no drums or trumpets. They could only see a huge fiery red figure rushing over from the Liang army, like a dim flame.
Even though the dim light caused the lake to appear, it is still impossible to ignore. When the Huns in the forefront saw the man riding towards him, they subconsciously opened their bows and shot arrows at him.
However, the sky was dark, and the knight was moving very fast. More than a dozen arrows flew out towards him. There was no sound of hitting the armor, and they all apparently shot into the snow.
Instead, he took a dark red shadow and entered a stone's throw away, and a person stood out from the horse's mane. He held an arrow across his mouth, and another arrow was already on the string.
Before the Huns who were shooting arrows had time to react, they heard the news behind them.
There was a sound of "Hmm", followed by the sound of someone falling off a horse. Looking back, it turned out that a comrade who was holding the fire was lying on the ground with his neck in his hands, and an arrow was stuck in his throat like a wedge.
However, it was not over yet. In the rain of arrows shot by the Huns, the knight was impartial and fired three more arrows. Each arrow was sure to hit, and all of them hit the person holding the fire.
The torch fell into the snow, and the soldiers in the front suddenly felt that the surroundings were darkened, and they were even more frightened. They couldn't help but exclaimed: "This man is shooting an arrow against the wind, but the range of the arrow is not reduced!" The person who shot the arrow was Lu Bu.
He rode into the battle alone without giving any military orders. The people around him were startled. Only when he rushed half a mile away did Gao Shun and others react and shouted:
"Wan Sheng" charges forward. After they had rushed out half a mile, Liang Jun behind them followed them as if they had just woken up from a dream.
For a moment, the horse's hooves were flying, and the snow and mist were like clouds. Although they couldn't see clearly where the coach was, Gao Shun and others would know the coach's intentions as long as they observed where there was commotion among the enemy troops.
Immediately, as if they were in sync with each other, they all fired arrows at one place. The Huns were blowing their trumpets and wanted to attack, but unexpectedly, the Liang army took the lead. The Qingqi in front wanted to pull back and fight again, but the Qingqi in the rear did not know the situation because of the darkness. Still riding forward, he couldn't make any progress for a while.
Unable to retreat, the whole army was cramped together and started shouting and making a fuss. Juqu Wuji ordered his troops to shout loudly: "Disperse to both sides, disperse to both sides! Disperse the troops!" Then seeing that the Liang army was approaching, he ordered his followers to use Hulu arrows, which are similar to Yu Chong'er's arrow also has a wide and flat arrowhead, like a shovel, but the arrow body is heavier and naturally more powerful.
The one who rushed the closest was Captain Hu Qi Gao Ya. Seeing that Ju Qu Wuji was wearing different clothes, he guessed that he was the commander-in-chief of the army and immediately led a hundred cavalry to charge towards him.
However, when they were more than ten steps away, dozens of Hulu arrows were fired at the same time, and they collided head-on. The collision was so violent that the arrowhead sliced his neck flat and flew out from behind.
The soldiers behind him saw that Gao Ya's head had been completely cut off and thrown into the air, with blood spurting out and making a sizzling sound. However, the headless corpse was still sitting on the horse's back, continuing to gallop up and down with the horse.
This time Hu Lu's arrows went down and killed dozens of people. Seeing this, Lu Bu personally led his knights to rush to the rescue, and killed dozens of people with Hu Lu's arrows. For a while, the courage brought by the general's charge into the battle gradually became doubtful, and he did not dare to go forward to fight again.
This finally bought Juqu Wuji some time to change formations. They continued to spread out to both sides, almost forming a line, hoping to put pressure on Liang Jun with this rain of arrows.
However, after experiencing a little panic, Liang Jun discovered that only one of the enemy's troops seemed to have this strange shovel-head-like arrow, and the rest of the Qingqi only used ordinary bone arrows and armor-piercing arrows, so they gradually calmed down and started to attack again. Enemy forces attack.
Gao Shun rushed to the front, and he and his trapped camp were like a strong wind colliding with the north wind. The soldiers trapped in the camp all wore full-body armor that even covered their mouths and noses. Arrows from the sky missed and hit the armor. Some penetrated into the gaps in the armor's stomach, while others made small holes in the armor. It made all kinds of noises.
But these people have long been accustomed to the heavy weight on their bodies and the rain of arrows that shuttle back and forth. The bruises caused by the impact have become insignificant.
Because of their iron armor, they were unable to shoot their bows, so they just held their halberds and charged forward silently.
The Meiji cavalry were wearing fur coats and were not good at charging head-on, so they galloped backwards while turning around to shoot arrows, and then quickly entered the woods.
But as soon as they retreated, they knew they had made a big mistake. The branches in the forest were criss-crossed. After experiencing this heavy snow, many branches were broken by the weight of the snow. The horses stepped on the high and low branches, and their speed could not be improved. Come up.
This gave the trapped camp a good opportunity to get closer. Gao Shun was the first to rush into the Qingqi. Chang Zhen swept left and right, and one person landed, followed closely by the second and third person.
More and more heavy cavalry dug into the light cavalry, just like a blade cutting through cloth, almost unstoppable.
When Gao Shun rushed out of the woods again, the wind from the north had weakened a lot, and the moonlight shone down from the sky, making the surrounding snow white. The situation that originally required firelight to see clearly was now clear.
At this time, he was surprised to find that he had rushed to the side of the Huns. Obviously the Huns did not expect that they would be the first to rush here.
To the south of the Huns, Lu Bu and others were still shooting at them. Gao Shun realized that he had decided the victory, so he ordered the soldiers in the camp to reorganize their formation.
and then shouted
"Ten thousand wins". After a long gallop, they were all a little tired, but their calls were still as penetrating as a wolf's howl.
When the Hun knights saw the enemy troops rushing behind them, they all panicked and said, "Are we surrounded? We have to rush out quickly!" They all rushed to rush to the river first.
At this time, the Huns' battle line had long been stretched into a long line. When chaos broke out, they were instantly out of Juqu Wuji's control.
There were only more than 300 people trapped in the camp, which could not stop everyone from escaping the battlefield, but it was more than enough to stop the Huns using Hulu arrows.
So they cooperated with most of them in tandem to capture this part of the enemy force. Juquwuji asked people to shoot Hulu arrows again, but it only delayed a little time.
After all, it is extremely difficult to make a Hulu arrow. They only brought more than 300 arrows when they came this time.
After two more rounds of shooting, they could only shoot with ordinary armor-piercing arrows, but this could only stop the knights wearing leather armor, but could not stop the iron mountain-like trap.
After piercing Ju Qu Wuji's throat with the tip of the spear, Gao Shun pulled out the long spear. He sprinkled the blood from the tip of the spear, and the snow on the ground suddenly revealed dots of red hollows.
He looked back and saw arrows stuck in the snow like weeds, and the bodies of the Huns were as jagged as rocks.
The Liang soldiers sat on these corpses, drinking the wine they carried while counting the ranks and talking and laughing calmly.
Their lives will remain the same tomorrow.
